The Theater Column By arts columnist Tom Sims Ever just want to turn off the news — or the world — or better yet, your thoughts? There is much to be hopeful for but still much work to be done. The events of the recent past have caused civil unrest, but what about personal upset? If television is mind candy, there’s an older series from the SyFy channel that is better than an all-day sucker! Stargate Atlantis ran for ive seasons. An advanced civilization from long ago is hidden deep under the ocean in the city of Atlantis. They are the keepers of a portal to other universes and galaxies. Go in the portal from their Atlantis base and come out thousands of light years away to ind allies, ight aliens and try to bring down a whole society of villains intent on sucking the life out of all living people. Five seasons. This show carried on for ive seasons. Wait, wait... No judgie, no judgie! It’s remarkable how this show went on. If you’re a Star Trek fan, like myself, you can’t mistake the Trekkieness. Yes, I just made up that word. The show features a doctor who complains, “I’m a doctor, not a wormhole expert!” Paraphrasing but that’s close to what he says in one episode. And to put a point on it, he has a very “Scotty” accent. The series is one that you can easily stumble upon — even though some of you may have been fans for years. The wormhole express started in 1994 with Stargate, starring Kurt Russell and James Spader. Critics weren’t in love — one citation called it “a portal to ho-hum” — but sci-i fans loved it. It even got quirky awards. A cult following started with a tv series called SG-1, which lasted a decade, the Atlantis spin off, and two other franchises. It all ended about 10 years ago, but thanks to the magic of steaming, it remains ininite. More than just the one doctor, the show’s sets are really Trekkian. Ok no more made up words…although look it up, that’s sort of oficially a word. The plots are relatively easy to follow and there’s a little romance brewing from time to time. Throw in a few tense situations, save-the-day moments, and (at times) cheesy dialogue, and you’ve got Stargate Atlantis. As cheesy as it gets, it’s never so bad that it becomes unwatchable (caveat: if sci-i’s your thing). All this to say with all the news and divisiveness, maybe hop a portal and ease that worried mind. Bargain shopper escapism for sure — but still works. Hopefully, you get back a little refreshed for the ongoing battle! cold spring brewery is open! Gift Cards & Growlers Available!
